Benghazi, and the search for truth





Congressman Jeff Duncan
Overview of today's Benghazi hearings: We learned that the State Department's #2 official in Libya was never interviewed by the FBI about Benghazi. FBI & DoD assets were "shocked and amazed" they weren't being called in to help the victims. Those interviewed for State's official report weren't given the chance to confirm their testimony was used appropriately. We learned that the folks on the ground NEVER reported a protest or demonstration. The Ansar al-Sharia terror group claimed responsibility for the attack while it was still taking place. The #2 official in Libya was told by Obama Administration lawyers not to cooperate with Congress, and said that Amb. Rice's inaccurate comments undermined US efforts in Libya and hampered the FBI's investigation. (One thing's for sure, this needs to be the beginning of the investigation, not the end)

Today a handful of brave whistle-blowers stepped forward to tell the truth about the horrific terrorist attacks against our U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya that resulted in the deaths of four Americans including our U.S. Ambassador, Christopher Stevens.

For months the Obama administration, with significant backing from the liberal media, have attempted to hide the truth about what happened. To cover their failures in combating terrorism, they told lies saying it was not a preplanned terrorist attack, even when they knew that to be an absolute falsehood.

As the hearings unfolded Wednesday it was apparent to anyone who chose to open their minds that this administration from the President down lied to their teeth! Some call it political. Some call it moronic stupidity. Some call it miscommunication. Bulls...! The President of the United States, The Secretary of State, The Press Secretary and more all lied! And apparently the then Secretary of Defense had his head so far up the President’s you know what that he also came out with some bulls… line as to “we couldn’t just send our people in there without knowing the situation”. We know they had real time video! We know they were told that the consulate was under attack. And we damned well know the “video” excuse was complete balderdash.

I want to make one point as to the above that I have not really seen any one expound upon much and if I am wrong on this assertion I would ask someone to please show me that. It is my understanding that for hours, one of the hero Seals reported he had the mortar position that was shelling the consulate “lit up” while they were begging for help. I understand that this means he had a laser aimed at the position which in turn a fighter could have homed a missile or whatever in on. It is also my understanding that as the battle lasted for some hours, there was in fact plenty of time to get an F16 over there which could have blown the sorry Muslim Al-Quida whatever they are called bastards directly to hell! Yet our Secretary of Defense said we couldn’t do that?! And what about our Commander in Chief, you know, the one who was informed and went to bed because he had to be up early for a trip to Vegas! He couldn’t have ordered a strike?!

Four people died! This administration lied! It doesn’t get any simpler than that! The lies have to stop!!!

And since the SEAL was painting a target, I think he really believed air support was on its way. I believe he was told by the administration that air support was on the way, and lit up that target for the strike. He betrayed his position in doing that, placing the administration as being even more directly at fault for his death. They lied to him, and he opened himself up as a result. There is a lot of blood on the hands of the Obama administration.
